I'm curious if these layers are individual paint layers or part of the priming/painting process for just one color? Ignore the blacks splotches on top of the red.

Looks like there is dark gray, light gray, tan, white, green, then red.

Looks like mine! I would say factory + two resprays.

I count 8 or 10 layers One or two could be a sealer. Had a MG Midget with thirteen layers on it. getting it smooth and clean to paint was no fun wish I had it now got totaled. Gordon

And the grays probably primer. What's the original color on the door post plate??

Interesting. Not sure about other parts - this was my front trunk lid. The rear trunk lid is only red with white underneath. Doing a test wrap of these two parts this weekend. Then the rest of the car later this winter after some body repair is done.
